Compact size, Physical camera lens cover
Bass-heavy audio, Potential privacy concerns with the camera
Apart from a boost to the camera, the Amazon Echo Show 5 (2nd Gen) is a minimal upgrade which sticks to the tried and true formula for a smart bedside clock radio...

Great bedside device,All the skills of Alexa,Good sound for the size
Touch response is slow,User interface isn't the best,Low resolution lacks future potential,Could dim better at night
Amazon has always designed to a price, making its devices really competitive and knowing that Alexa voice control will drive the experience.Alexa continues to deliver in the Echo Show 5, so for those already fans of the system it's a great small-screen ex...
Barely any new upgrades, Sounds shrill at high volumes, Performance can be laggy
No, mainly because you can buy the previous model for $15 less than this one — while still having all the core features at your disposal.Editors' RecommendationsAmazon Echo Dot 3rd-Gen vs. Echo Dot 4th-Gen The best iPad keyboards for 2021 Amazon Prime Day...
Better camera quality, Small and unobtrusive, Good value
Not the best sound quality, No 3.5mm audio output
None of this means that the Echo Show 5 is a poor product. As a smart alarm clock for the bedroom, or a compact radio for your home office, it works brilliantly; and it's unobtrusive enough to fit anywhere else around the house that might be missing an Ec...
Alexa is always learning,Great for smart home control, Loads of smart features,
No 3.5mm audio input, Small screen, Not that different to the 1st generation,
This tiny smart display is incredibly easy to use, especially if you already own other Alexa devices. Its 5.5inch screen is slightly too small to use in a kitchen, but for a bedroom or small office, the Amazon Echo Show 5 (2nd Gen, 2021) is perfect. Reaso...
Affordable, Can double as a home security camera, Lets you see and hear Alexa
No YouTube app, Audio lacks bass, Low-resolution video
The Amazon Echo Show 5 (2nd generation) is an affordable smart display that brings the benefits of seeing as well as hearing Alexa to those on a budget. It's simple to use, it's got an improved camera, and it comes in a new blue finish. While it's a great...
Unimpressive sound, Sluggish performance, No aux output
The 2021 Echo Show 5 is a very minor update to the 2019 first-gen model. If you already own one, you won't be tempted to upgrade, but it does offer a few extra features for the same price.However, if you don't care about being able to see its camera feed...
Abstract: Smart speakers are popular, and for good reason: In addition to playing music, you can ask a smart speaker a question, and it answers back. But speakers are limited to telling you what you want rather than showing you. The concept of "show, don't tell" is...

Puedes ver la cámara remotamente, Nuevo color, Asequible
Sonido poco impresionante, Rendimiento flojo, Sin salida AUX
El Echo Show 5 de 2021 es una pequeña actualización del modelo de primera generación de 2019. Si ya tienes uno, no te sentirás tentado por comprar el nuevo, pero sí que ofrece algunas funciones extra por el mismo precio.No obstante, si no te interesa la p...
